yea, just static electricity guys. like when you shuffle your feet on carpet while wearing socks and then touch a doorknob

what ive found works is just to lightly rub your knuckle or thumb or something on the window after you exit and before you shut the door. the only thing about this is it will get your window dirty sometimes.

maybe its just me (i think im slightly obsessive compulsive) but do finger prints on your side windows or windshield drive you absolutely nuts?? like when im driving ill notice one, and itll bug me until i clean it off with one of the napkins i always carry in my glove compartment.

ok i work in a hotel. spend time some days changing beds. and i found i get frackin fried every time i touch the dman beds lol

few things i discovered sa to why
if your shoes are weak in the botom. u basicly act like a ground your body's static will jsut disipate out of your shoes.

but when your wearing newer shoe's or more insulated ones. youw ill get it to ground the static out of the nearest place. generally the round in your car. lol

at workw hen we have to pull the sheet's off (then whole ones. ick) u can hear it crack and snap. then if i touch the sheets afterward i have at times had it ark through my finger and felt it in the bottom of my foot

those frigging hurt

with my car i just touch my aftermarket shift **** when i turn it off and on my way out
to solve oyur problems. just take your shoes off as you get out.

At one time Mazda had a little bump type **** near the lock **** that you were supposed to touch before exiting to eliminate the shock. Always been a problem. Touching the metal section works for me (when I think about doing it)
